Presentation

Now listen to a story I have to tell you that connects to

our new lesson for today. Mike wanted to find out
which box, A or B, has the greater volume. He filled box
A with marbles. Then, he transferred the marbles to box
B. After box B was full, there were still some marbles in
box A.
 Discussing new concepts and practicing new skill
#1
Performing the Activity
• Which box has the greater
volume?
• Why there are gaps or
empty spaces within the
boxes?
• What is volume?
• Next is, what is non-
standard units?
Discussing new concepts and practicing new skill #2

2. Processing the Activities

• Group Activity
• Divide the class into four groups. Distribute a box to each
group. Ask each group to fill the box with the materials
given to them to find the volume of the box.
Developing mastery (Leads to Formative Assessment)

4. Reinforcing the Concept and Skill

• Find the actual number of marbles that will fill each box.
 Finding practical applications of concepts and skills in
daily living
5. Applying to new and other Situations
• Let the pupils do items 1 and 2 under Apply Your Skills
on p. 228, LM.
 Making generalizations and abstractions about the
lesson
6. Summarizing the Lesson

• How can we visualize the volume of solids using non-

standard units of measure?

• What can help us visualize the volume?

 Evaluating learning
Find the volume of the following using non-standard unit of
measurement.
• 1. Balls
• 2. Marbles
• 3. Blocks
• 4. pebbles
• 5. mongo seeds
Additional activities for application or remediation
• Find the volume of a tetra pack of juice using the following
materials:
